Depends on how cheap the drywall is.

You may avoid brain damage, but your get cancer form the dust on the way through.

Same here. VW Heritage parts has a decent selection for the cars I work on. And for T3 (Vanagon here in the US), there are a bunch of domestic parts suppliers, same for air cooled Porsches and VWs (Beetles, Buses, Things, Dune Buggies).

I’m also rebuilding a 64 Chevy truck for a client, and almost every body panel is available from Taiwan, though so far Auto Metal Direct (AMD) has had the best out of the box fit. Some cheaper panels look like they were designed by a blind man wearing baseball mitts.

Are the left 2 Lada based or something?

And the one in the right doesn’t look like any ford I’ve seen. Especially the coilovers!

This stands in contrast to the Republican party of today which ~~is almost entirely dogmatic in its beliefs.~~

Doubles down even when anything it believes is shown to be patently false/immoral/illegal.

No chillitos in all of New England either, gotta go to NYC for the closest, then Ohio or NC.

I was in Cadillac MI last summer, regrettably ate at a Taco Bell, and didn’t even know I could have gotten one! It was the first run to the border I’d made in years too!

Sat up all night in a wind storm with cramps afterwards. 0/10

They switched back to the much more durable MagSafe (3?) connector. I have 3 MagSafe MacBooks and one usc-c model. The only one I have issues not charging is the USB-C one, and it’s the newest by 2 years.

It’s actually a really impressive bit of engineering and craft. Making the doors work around the back wheel wells because of the extreme chassis shortening is difficult work.

Also the fuel tank, drive shaft, exhaust, brake lines, and wiring all had to be modified to work too. Even the parking brake would have had to be changed to keep working.

More like a melted Russian torture bot.

Is it a Detroit Electric with a restomodded Android powered entertainment system?

Or just a misspelling?

If you want to be a cynic, be cynical about how so much of the pollution in New England comes from NY, PA, and OH’s dirty power plants.

Uh oh, do they have to vote through Huston?

If so, there might have a … problem.

I’ll see myself out.
